The first book should be:

"Surely you're Joking Mr Feynman"

I'm serious.

Do I have to re-read it?

Pshreck - this is a cool idea, count me in.

LF Slim - NY Times Bestseller List

Some stuff that jumped off the list for me that might be good for OOT-

Fiction: The Good Life, Jay Mcinerney
Non-Fiction: 1776, David McCullough / World Is Flat, Thomas Friedman

-Al

oot inspired me to FINALLY read catch 22, as well as confederacy of dunces and global brain.

[/ QUOTE ]

i'm finding catch 22 pretty dull after ~50 pages, does this preclude me from the book club?

[/ QUOTE ]

actually, i just started it as well - i'm on page 88 and not sure how i feel yet...but i have heard it starts out slow/confusing and gets a lot better.

I burned through about 4 great books in a 2 week span and then got to catch-22. I've been stuck (around 100 pages) for the last 3 months. I hate it.
